First
I have everything. I use my back pack as a pillow. Nice camp.
✌💞🤘
Hey , I don’t know for sure., but it looks like you got all that stuff at the store.,this ain’t real. Semper Fi bro. Pretty cool ., you got skills and brains. Knowing math is a good thing. A lot of people don’t know mathematics….”Let’s go Brandon”.,!!!
JUST A TIP. CHEEP TARPS , YOU CAN USE A PLASTIC PUTTY KNIFE AND SPREAD FLEX SEAL ON BOTH SIDES. WILL MAKE IT STRONGER AND LAST A LONG TIME. 0 LEAKS AS WELL. ALSO YOU CAN DO THE SAME WITH GOOD DURABLE CLOTH SHEETS, MAKES GREAT WATERPROOF TARPS. SPRAY PAINT WITH OD, OR OTHER NATURAL COLORS . THINK ABOUT IT, STAY IN THE WOODS , AND. ANCHORS AWEIGH CORPRAL.
@@robertott2631 Thrift Stores such as Good Will & Salvation Army have price tag markers just like the ones on the items he showed us. Many times you can find new in the package stuff like the tarp at thrift stores. I have gotten brand new stuff from "thrift stores" also.
I will have to disagree with your assumption as to Store Bought..
What is everyone's major malfunction that they can't watch the whole video? Keep doing your thing Corporal. I wouldn't miss one for the world!
I’m really loving these “minimal/improvised kit” videos. It shows what you can accomplish if you have the knowledge and skills to adapt to the situation.
You are always a highlight of our Sunday. Thanks!
LoL. Today I brought my laundry upstairs in a big garbage bag. My daughter laid on it, and I said "when Corporal goes camping he fills his bags with leaves to make a comfy bed!" She loved that. We watch you every week. She's only 6, but we'll be practicing soon. ❤️👍
Proof that skills are better than gear.
Right on! Modify, adapt, overcome. Wish I had a fraction of the hands on experience Cpl has that enables him to use junk that would likely kill most of us.
Dude this vid is strait up as common man as it gets! The ability to just visualize the value in the basic items would be a challenge to a lot of people these days with how dependent on the latest and greatest technology society has become. The inspiration this video created was priceless! Especially for people who still have a spirit of independence and self sufficiency. Great stuff Corporal Kelly! Keep it up!
Then them being outside in the woods at night alone, lol. Not for everybody.
@Jason Davis - I completely agree!
I like your bit on “sun washing.” My grandma was a pioneer and homesteaded in Washington state. She talked about “sun purification” and swore by it.
It also whitens your whites. My grandmother taught that to me as well as purifying your clothes.
This is how I started camping, goodwill, free stuff on Craigslist, and stuff people threw out at the curb. Did what I had to in order to get into the woods for very little money. Love seeing how easy it is to find items that will work just fine for overnights in the woods without spending hundreds or thousands of dollars. Some people get caught up in the gear and forget why they even went out, to enjoy their time outside.
I know I'm being repetitive, but this is again a perfect example of knowledge over expensive gear.
Thanks for sharing with & teaching us.
Excellent work as always Corp, just shows you its not "the gear" that gets you through, its knowledge and attitude.
Never fails: I learn something every time I watch you, Corporal. Thank you for keeping on teaching us how to *thrive* outdoors.
I had never seen a fire started with the small flashlight lense mirror before - a cool skill. Spark onto charred material another one I've never seen before. It's great to learn a new survival skill.
I couldn't agree more. I have seen people use parabolic mirrors in this way, but never in the field like this. What impressed me most is how fast corporal Kelly got an ember. For someone like me who has drilled through so many hearth boards with the bow drill and still not managed an ember, except perhaps once, this certainly looks like the way to go unless the sky is completely cloud covered. In truth the only friction method I have had much success with even in the garden has been the fire roll. I am very glad of BIC for razors as well as lighters.
I was watching AB Camping and outdoors and he was tying a knot he mentioned that if the subscribers wanted to learn about different rope knots and different types of knots they should watch Corporals Corner and he is right you almost always show us how to tie a good knots.
Love the variety in your recent vids. That CC attitude is awesome. "Why?" "Because it can be done."
I have been very I’ll this last couple of years and almost died 3 times. I love the outdoors and especially being able to survive and thrive! I have learned so much from your videos, new ideas I never thought of for creating camps and shelters, knot tying (I appreciate the way you always take the time to slow down when tying your knots so we can learn), knife skills and your insights to equipment etc.
Being unable to get outside has been very depressing, but whenever I see you out there It gives me encouragement to keep pushing through and, keep moving forward so I can get back out there!
Thank You for sharing what you know with us! It is inspiring!
May Gods bless you and keep you and your son!
Rabbi Moshe
glad you are still here,
If you were to post an hour long video, I would watch it from start to finish. Your videos give me ideas for my camping trips. Also, I love and appreciate how consistently you have posted videos since you started. Stay awesome and stay safe!
The tip on making char material was outstanding af!
I miss the 30 minute videos, not gonna lie. You do what makes you happy. It's your channel not any one else's. Keep up the great videos brother.
Yes thank you shawn for another overnighter vid I was out with the kids yesterday improvised cooking on hot rocks and a shelter kids loved it.Inspired on the work you do so thank you.
OUTSTANDING !!! This is reality. This is our future. In my career I have dealt with hundreds of homeless camps. That reality could quite easily be our reality all too soon. Thrift shop accruements is SURVIVAL. By far the best vid I’ve seen, and I’ve seen thousands! Well done !
Corporal this time I wanted to say an extra big thank you for all of the entertainment and education you've provided here on UA-cam. It's too bad more people don't see what I see. Your $25 budget just goes to show how easy it would be for anybody to get out and spend a night in the woods. So here's my thanks and I hope you can use it to raise the steaks (and bacon) on a future video. As always I enjoyed this immensely and can't thank you enough.
Love these dollar store or thrift stores challenge videos. Very Great.
Knowledge is priceless and to share the knowledge you have is absolutely selfless. The principals you teach are not just enjoyable ingenious and entertaining but potentially life saving and that is deserves the deepest gratitude 🙏.Thank you
Amen to that!
Completely agree. This is myfirst video I saw from this guy because youtube algorithm and alrrady subbed and learned handfull of really great tricks.
The fire with the flashlight reflector was "outstanding!"
Love your videos! No dumb music, just the sounds of nature. I also like how you show people how they can survive using inexpensive everyday items. Anybody can spend big money on a bunch of expensive gear but I'll bet there's more low income people watching than anything else! Thank you for your Service and keep the outstanding videos coming!
Wow. So many take-aways from this video.
1. Fallen leaves in a garbage bag as a bed.
2. How to cut wood with a non-serrated blade.
3. Knots.
4. Creating charcoal, which is great to know; could also come in handy to create an improvised water filtration system.
Love this! This would be such an interesting challenge to do, because it's so easy to spend way too much money on gear.
I've seen a Dollar Tree and Walmart kit before but this is a new one for me. Well done Shawn!
Outstanding AF! Thank you Corporal! Sundays wouldn't be the same! 🇺🇲
Once again the Corporal proves it’s better to have Extensive knowledge than EXPENSIVE equipment. Great job !!
I really enjoy your videos. I couldn't do what you do"but" if I should ever find myself needing to survive without the soft lifestyle I'm use to, you've given me something that could save my life. Thank you for your service and for what you're doing now.
Awesome fire with the flashlight!!! Whole video made for me in 5 seconds! Love you man! You’re so bad ass! You inspire me to take my son out and show him things you’ve taught me!
Thanks to this channel I have been inspired to get back out in the woods. I am heading out AGAIN this afternoon, and am planning an overnighter in the near future.
OUTSTANDING, Corporal!
Really enjoying all the different, minimal, “junk” kits! Showing how it can be done on a budget/survival!
Thank you, for continuing to make great tutorials!
Semper Fi, Marine
Shawn Kelly the " Bishop of bushcraft; master of all he surveys ", you rock Shawn.
You shown proof that even inexpensive stuff can work in making a shelter and heating up food. Also making a fire excellent job
What I love about this channel is you get that “Asmr” aspect but he still explains what he’s doing
I’m now heading to the Goodwill Store to find some cheap crap for camping! I never thought a thrift store could set you up for an emergency night in the woods! Plus, you never know when you’ll find something great!
The parabolic mirror fire starter was brilliant.
I wish he'd have shown it unedited if it only took a minute. It looked so easy it looked unreal.
I totally agree. Brilliant sir! I also like the successful challenge of procuring your items from thrift store.
I use sunlight all the time to sanitize inanimate objects.
I was four deep with combustion now I’m five with the parabola reflector. I scavenged high-grade optics from an old projection TV for the magnifying glasses within.
Salute to you
@@robe4037 I hope a Bic lighter is one of your 5. 😉
@@allaboutroofing2 90+ to give to others when the time comes
@@robe4037 I'm the same, I have reserves for others. Will be quite lonely otherwise. Cheers friend.
Excellent video Shawn , that's what I'm talking about , back to basics. No fancy fort made from timbers in the woods. Just darn good old common sense fun. There should be an icon for 2 thumbs up if you really dig the video.
Everything you show us is a jewel. I appreciate all the little tricks of your trade to push the rest watching to your level. Many thanks.
I like this idea much better than the $250 Walmart haul. During that, when you were suggested gradually swapping out cheap equipment for better stuff, I thought why not get better stuff from the start by purchasing used? Poor people do not consider $250 “budget.” And poor people are better off learning that QUALITY LASTS. Anyway, these are all great fun and I love following along.
Tips and tricks galore, in this "Thrift store finds" instalment of the brilliant Corporals Corner.... Outstanding AF . Thank you ATVB Scott Somerset UK
I have bought all my wool blanket from thrift stores/charity shops over the years.
Better than a sleepingbag in summer great addition in winter
Glad you skipped the lighter. The flashlight ember was cool
Parabolic lens, decomp wood, sanitizing or sterilization, learned a new fav knot, awesome!!! Love the improvement for leaf bed to hopefully get some sleep. Great video man. The temping of the wood great idea!!!
Heck that crappy tarp was heads and shoulders above a tube tent. It was capable of numerous uses.
Cpl. Kelly, Another Outstanding Video and information AF, you don't need name brand stuff to go out and enjoy the outdoors. Great looking meal too, two of my favorite steak and bacon what more could you ask for. You Are The Master Woodsman and Bushcrafter thanks again for passing on the knowledge and craft. Tim L.
Using the flashlight reflector is a good method, not used much now. Back when I smoked, I lit my cigarette and then used it to light my fire. Lit a dead cattail for my fire the next day.
I've used flint and steel with char to light my smokes because I lost my lighter somewhere😂
" Double bagging it because we don't know where it's been" 😂😂 your one liners kill me.
Absolutely love the torch reflector fire lighting! First time I’ve seen that one! 👏👏👏
Brother, you got balls that clank! I'm 46 and gone are the days of roughin' it like that! The aches and pains after a night like that are REAL! Thanks for keeping at it for us your loyal viewers. I really appreciate the creativity and commitment!🍻🍻
Loved the video. I tracked with you on everything until using the parabolic from the flashlight to create some char material. Would never have thought of that. Great idea, always a valuable takeaway from your videos. Keep'em coming!
That was crazy and amazing, I was expecting the lenses being used to create the ember not the parabolic with some punk wood; unbelievably resourceful/creative thinking. Definitely one for the toolbox!
“In the voice of Lieutenant Dan”: Got dam it Corporal! That trash bag bed is one of the best got-dang-ideas out there
Looks like the kit I had made as a kid from plunderer items the parents wouldn't miss but sadly it was a Jansport backpack and idk what chef's knife 🔪 I had tarp off the wood pile and I had this awesome magnifying glass outa an old Camera it was thick it came out a one that you look down into but face forward. When that Camera 📸 Broke I took the lenses out wrapped them in cloth and put them in my survival/ spy kit hahaha
Using that light bulb reflecter from that flashlight to start a fire was genius!AF😊
Agreed! badass!!! I always take a magnifying glass with me... The flashlight thing was a new one for me.
Thanks for showing those knots slowly--I appreciate that!
First timer to your channel. Subscribed. Good stuff.
"....double-bagging it because we don't know where it's been." 😆 Know that some of us do appreciate your humor👌
Definitely the best bcraft channel more innovative than most
How many times am I allowed to rewatch the part where you toss that entire tree like it's a pencil? Outstanding.
Love you so much, as a disabled Marine, you keep me motivated, Semper Fi
Great video! Videos like this and your last one that show what can be done with minimal gear are outstanding! Once again, the "K.I.S.S" principle saves the day. While I have a kit of favorite gear that I've assembled through the years that probably costs hundreds of dollars, I can also appreciate what can be done in a pinch with found items or in this case, thrift store items on the cheap. Cover, containers, candling, combustion, cutting instrument, and a means of staving off the effects of conduction were all easily achieved with $25 and most importantly knowledge, skills, and abilities sprinkled with some imagination. Well done!
Using the flashlight to start the fire was cool. Minimum gear challenge nice. Keep up the great content!!
Very informative video, really appreciate the way you show the knotting processes you use. The alternative fire starters were helpful as well. I watched beginning to end.
Im just starting out hiking/camping/backpacking. And i had the misconception you needed to buy at least purpose built, or name brand gear to have a decent time. Finding your videos has shown me otherwise. Awesome builds with re purposed items, while having a good time outside, I like it . Keep up the great work Cpl.
I love that you still do a detailed, simple instruction of your tarp Ridgeline every once in a while. I have 2 full Ridgelines set up in the garage because of your videos. One for me, one for my girls. Keep up the good work.
Great idea 💡.....from riches to refuse to riches .....the Prepper cycle goes on !
I think watching these videos of you temporarily escaping, truly help the rest of us when we can't 👏🤠
“The crappiest tarp in the world” with “rust proof aluminum grommets” 🤣🤣 that parabolic lens trick is the masters touch, love it. Next time you can rip the copper wire out of the electric blanket and make a radio antenna to put in your online food delivery using Morse code.
The best thing I've found in your channel is the way you tie knots..that something most important for me to learn About it..
Salute from Malaysia
I enjoy perusing the thrift stores. You never know what you'll find. Great tip using the flashlight and if you have to wander around in the dark it is so much better than a burning stick.
I'm waiting for the Corporal's Cook Book
Loving how you get more out of that el cheapo gear than that craptastic £500 "ultimate" amazon survival kit
My wife and I watched the whole video and learn a few super cool things. A starting fire with flashlight and B then char technique. We were wondering about the fire starting technique with the duck tape you mentioned in the beginning of the video?
"because I have a bomb a** recipe that I wanna share with you" love it haha
i had always heard of starting a fire with the reflector from a flashlight, but had never seen it successfully done until now. mind blown... just one more reason i'm glad i found your channel. thanks for all the great content!
that looks like a great knife for the money , its nice to have as a back up you can hide somewhere
One word of caution about using used cook wear: Be sure to check for unusual residue on the inside. People use cook wear for heating things, which they were not intended for. I have seen people use old cook wear for melting lead wheel weights, for making fish weights. I don't know if that heavy metal residue would be removed by boiling. It is, admittedly, unlikely you will happen upon a cook pot with heavy metal residue, but still worth considering.
Flashlight ingenuity... I'll put that in my memory file! Great video 👍
Way to challenge yourself and keep the videos original. You have taught us alot!
It's not that I get bored watching your 30 minute videos, I have a 21 month old daughter that is constantly making me step away cause she is getting into things! And after she goes to sleep, I'm barely awake the next 30 mins to watch a video. I love the content you put out I just don't have 30 mins most of the time to actually pay good attention to the video. Love you Cpl Kelly!!
People might complain about this one. I'm never going to do this. But that isn't the point. The point is I learned a lot. Didn't know about the blanket sun bathe thing, didn't know or needed to be reminded how to make the char, never thought about the flashlight inferno deal and never thought about the rib-eye bombs. All good things to learn. Tools for the toolbox as Coalcracker says. Loved it. Keep it up.
Ooh Rah! Improvise, Adapt, Overcome! You have certainly lived it!💖
Excellent tip with the char material. Never heard or knew you could do that. Once again Outstanding AF
Not too far from the crap gear we used on trips when I was a kid. We spent all our money on boots, socks, down coat, and sleeping bag. I remember taking a small pot, utensils, and other stuff from my Mom's kitchen! I used an old, worn out before I got it Case knife for everything. Those were the days!
Really enjoying these budget overnighters. It’s amazing what you can do with so little!
My family go bags are 50% thrift store and then beefed up with water straws and other specialty items. Also, I don't feel like you need to go hard with sleep.. We all appreciate the time spent showing what you can do in a pinch, I say sleep as comfortable as you can. I don't need to see you uncomfortable to enjoy the vids. Shit bring an air mattress if you want.
Speaking as a person who has had survival training and put those skills to use on at least four continents, my fave part is his field expedient rakes!! 😂🤣
These products make you appreciate the real quality gear!
Excellent Shawn!
What I really like about these types of videos are:
1) It is a challenge to find what you need on a limited budget, and
2) Those who are new to this, and/or who can't afford to spend a lot...
Can learn from these videos, but of course training is a big factor!
I LOVE the knot tying! Easy to follow...and every time you say bad boy i take a swig of my beer. 👍
bad boy
I think half my outdoor gear came from a very clean church thrift store. Coleman sleeping bags $8, billy cups $1, low backpack cot $7, dome tent $10, propane stove with a dozen canisters $15, dining shelter 8x8 (no poles) $5, etc...
Most campers should hit such a store first. Many people buy a bunch of gear, try it twice and give up. Most of what i find looks nearly new at 1/10 the price
I “liked” and “Saved” just for the cord tying tips! Really enjoyed your adventure!
Corporal, being in the military, you know that survival does throw "nuggets" your way. When you found the lighter, you found a nugget.
shown and used in the video
To those who have never lived at altitude like up in the Rocky Mountains water does not like to boil. You got to really crank up the stove.
The Walmart and junkyard builds were great. Really loved this thrift store build though. Love where you are going with these videos. We watched the 30 minute vids and will watch the 20-ish minute vids too. Keep on keeping on. Thanks
Awesome trick with the flashlight!
I enjoyed in this video where you went back and explain the skills that you use such as using the parabolic lens, and then explained the char material that you had collected
From what I understand rayon is kinda a synthetic cotton fiber if that makes sense. Like cotton that was made instead of grown. I think it tends to be a little more dense. It can be found inside zippos. Great video idea, man. Genuinely inspirational IMO
Love the price limit too
I'm about a week late posting this, been dealing with a cold, but I just wanted to say It was a pleasure meeting you and Dave Canterberry at SMKW in Pidgeon Forge . I'm always a little hesitant about meeting people that I follow on youtube because sometimes when you meet people in real life, they can be very rude and not at all what you thought and it ruins the experience and turns one away from following, but I just wanted to say Shawn and Dave were top notch, very down to earth guys and you could tell they had a true interest in talking to everyone there. Thanks guys
